The Union of the Principalities, Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza, and the Reforms and Their Influence on the Church

Summary/Abstract: The Union of the Principalities under the ruler Alexandru Ioan Cuzar represented the fruition of a historical opportunity for the Romanians in the two principalities and the foundation of modern Romania. In the complicated historical context where some of the great powers were against us, the Romanian Principalities had wise and courageous people, who knew how to confront the great powers with an accomplished fact – the Union of the Romanian Principalities into a single state. This was followed by a series of radical reforms that oriented the country towards development and progress in all spheres of its existence. In order to be able to talk about the Union of the Principalities, it is necessary to have an overview of the international context in which this centuries-old desire of the Romanians could be fulfilled. In the mid-19th century, Europe was going through a very delicate period from a political, military and social point of view. After the Napoleonic Wars ended, the revolutions of 1848 broke out, events that completely changed the political and social paradigm of the European states.
